Iconifying and Maximizing a frame in Java

In this section, you will learn about the Iconifying and maximizing a frame in
java. Iconifying means to show a frame in minimized form. This program
displays a frame in both forms. By default the frame will be in the minimized form.
Following is the image of the
frame which has to be minimized or maximized:

Code Description:
frame.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.PLAIN_DIALOG):
The setWindowDecorationStyle() is the method of
the JRootPane class which sets the window decoration type using the
constant property PLAIN_DIALOG of the JRootPane class.
setExtendedState():
It sets the state of window to minimize and maximize.
It uses the constant field of the JFrame class.
MAXIMIZED_BOTH
This state is used to maximize the frame horizontal and vertical.
ICONIFIED
This state checks whether the frame is minimized or not.
Here is the code of program:
import javax.swing.*;
public class IconifyAndMaximizeFrm{
public static void main(String[] args){
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Iconifying and Maximizing a Frame");
frame.setUndecorated(false);
frame.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.PLAIN_DIALOG);
frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH); //Maximizing the frame
frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.ICONIFIED | frame.getExtendedState());
//Minimizing or Iconifing the frame
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
